What i need done is this. I need the built to order item prices to be hidden on the configurePrd.asp page, but for the base price and customized price to still show and update. I am not sure how to achieve this, but my manufacturers are insisting that this is done. Has anyone had any luck with this or have any suggestions? example (under grey wolf options i can't have the prices shown) ------------- K.K. |

Hi, Your link goes to a 404. Coincidentally I'm working on the configureprd pages at the moment, well probably tomorrow, for a custom tweak, so I'll take a look and let you know if it's straight forward. |

The link is working for me now! - First 2 attempts failed - ah well. Do you ALWAYS want to hide the option prices, or to be able to select when this is done? - The former is likely to be a much simpler solution. Are they aware it's a very simple task, even with the option prices hidden, to work out the cost of each option - either mentally or with a calculator - just untick / tick & do the math. Hiding the option price is really a psychological thing I guess, but if that's what they want that's fine. |

| Hi Greg, That's what I tried the 1st time it failed - with no joy, still, my later attempt just went straight there - the wonders of the web :-) |

yes they are aware that with a calculator the cost can be figured...they just do not want it shown......hiding the option price always would be just fine with me...

I believe the code changes need to be made in the configurePrdCode.asp page. My asp knowledge is sketchy at best. Any help appreciated ------------- K.K. |

Kyle, I've taken a look at the version of configurePrdCode I have - which is V3.11. To hide the lines on BTO items that are selectable via TICK BOXES search for 14%. You should find the following lines :- <td width="14%"> <div align="right"> <% if pnoprices<2 then%><%=scCurSign & money(prdPrice)%><%end if%> </div> The text I have highlighted in blue is the code that displays the price next to tick boxes. Change it to something like :- <td width="14%"> <div align="right"> <% if pnoprices<2 then%><% ' [RVCW - Comment out option prices] =scCurSign & money(prdPrice)%><%end if%> </div> The KEY thing is the ' which comments out the code - the rest of the text is to assist in finding changes that ay need to be RE-APPLIED whenever you upgrade the code. See http://www.earlyimpact.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1460&PN=3 - http://www.earlyimpact.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1460&am p;PN=3 for thoughts on keeping track of changes. Then search for the NEXT 14% where you will find almost identical code - repeat the change there as well. Apologies if I'm "teaching grandma to suck eggs" here - I've no idea what your skill / experience levels are & anyway, others may find it useful. I only looked at the tick boxes as per your example page - I also strongly suggest checking all the other pages where the option prices may be revealed - Recalled quote/estimate - emails that are sent etc. HTH  |

Happy to help - The tweak I gave doesn't impact any prices shown in a drop-down selection box, or radio buttons AFAIK, but If your not using them it's not an issue. Don't forget to work through the full "customer experience" - checking other places the option prices may be given such as emails, saved quotes, checkout process etc. |

Yeah i understand, and i'm not overly concerned with the prices being shown in emails or saved quotes etc....once they have requested for the quote they can see the price wherever.. thanks again ------------- K.K. |
